The Cast of Community Will Be Just As Sad As You If It Gets Canceled

The Daily Beast collected the women ofCommunity — Alison Brie, Yvette Nicole Brown, Gillian Jacobs, and writer Megan Ganz — in a room on the last day of shooting season three and got them talking about the hiatus, Chevy Chase’s inappropriate jokes, and the chances Community will be canceled. While discussing the possibility of Community’s demise, Jacobs and Brie started to cry. And then everyone hugged. And then they made jokes. Awww. Here’s the very sweet scene that went down when the ladies were asked how they would feel if this was their last day on set:

There are people studying Community. The totality of this show, people will look back and go, they really did change every week.
